Pakistan vs Australia 2nd Test Preview

Tomorrow the 2nd test between Pakistan and Australia will begin at the National Stadium Karachi. Pakistan and Australia have both prepared and are ready.

Australia have even revealed their starting eleven and Swepson will debut for Australia tomorrow. A leg spinner will play for Australia after a very long time and it will be interesting to see what the spin twin combo of Lyon and Swepson bring to the playing field on a Karachi pitch that is expected to offer more assistance for the spinners.

Pakistan is also expected to make two changes to their starting eleven from the previous game. Hasan Ali and Faheem Ashraf are expected to come in place of Naseem Shah and Iftikar Ahmed. I would like to see Pakistan be a bit more attacking and play a leg spinner in Zahid Mahmood. Especially if a spin-friendly wicket is being prepared then Pakistan should play 3 spinners and go for the kill. I don't think they should play Faheem in this game.

Pakistan Predicted XI: 1 Imam-ul-Haq 2 Abdulla Shafiq 3 Azhar Ali 4 Babar Azam (c) 5 Fawad Alam 6 Mohammed Rizwan (wk) 7 Nauman Ali 8 Hasan Ali 9 Sajid Khan 10 Zahid Mahmood 11 Shaheen Shah Afridi

However, their decision did not go well as the Australian bowlers dominated the Pakistani batsmen from the very beginning.
